Aeroponics is the use of a hydro-atomized spray to deliver nutrients to plants suspended in the air. This technique offers excellent plant growth and eliminates the need for soil while at the same time minimizing pathogen risks.

Biospheres

Biospheres are special, highly adaptable living habitats. Biospheres may only be built on Inhabitable terrain; in doing so, the terrain becomes habitable. Economic buildings can thereafter be built underneath the biosphere.

Xeno Farm

Xeno farms are large complexes dedicated to be successful integration of our farming and husbandry techniques with alien soils and nutrients.

The Capital City is a unique building that provides research while improving industrial and agricultural capacity. Capital Cities also provide excellent self defense and can withstand a sustained siege by determined opponents. Finally, Capital cities allow you to recruit basic infantry units.

An Outpost building is the humble first step in a civilization's efforts to colonize a new world. Outposts provide for a base level of agricultural, industrial, and scientific capacity. When built on a barren planet, it is critical for an outpost to be supplemented with an aeroponic farm. Outposts are also capable of rudimentary self-defense in case of invasion.

These machines , while expensive to maintain, will tirelessly transform barren hunks of rock into livable worlds with breathable atmospheres. (This building does not need to be built under a biosphere.)

In order to build a deep space station you have to place it on the galaxy screen - you could "Orbit" it (by placing it inside the blue circle with orange borders, that appears near every planet) or just anywhere in space. After you have placed it, the building itself will be ordered at the nearest colony with spaceport on it. Note that it is possible for a 1.500-production worth station to be ordered at the colony with 5 production. Currently there is no other way to do it, however.

After the platform/station was built, it will be delivered to the destination via transport ship (while the ordered station is being build you will see that the colony, in fact, is making a transport ship rather than specific station)

At the moment there is only one unique deep space building - subspace projector. You cannot change its design nor see it.

All other deep space buildings are just pre-made ones, like ships, so their efficiency varies on your research.

You always could make you own platforms and stations via ship constructor screen and then place them in space.
